Senator John H.. Mitchell wa again
the central figure. In th federal court
this . morning, when ' argument ware
heard on the motion ot hi counsel for
a new trial. Ex-Senator Thurston made
the-opening argument, alleging that In
the trial which resulted In .the convic
tion of hi client numerous error had
arisen. ' Becaue of these errors h In
sisted, that th ess shouid one more
be submitted to a Jury. -'TT - : ' '
. United States District Attorney Heney
replied,-- denying that there had been
any error which prejudiced the defend
ant's case, and citing numerous author
ities v. In support of . hi contentions.
Judge Bennett mad the closing argu
ment for . the defense, concluding early
this afternoon. The" trial of Congress

which was to, have been resumed" at I
o'clocki was deferred nntll' Judge -Bennett

of not. guilty. ; !;' , i
Tharstoa's Point.
v Th 'chief objection urged by Senator
Thurston to th regularity of ths trial
of Senator Mitchell was based on the
contention that th verdict' of the
Jury wa ' general- It was therefor
equlvslent to a verdict of guilty on
each of th eeven oovnt of the indict
ment, while aa to the alxth oount no
evidence bad been offered by the prose
cution. It wa - the defendant' right,
he Insisted, to be acquitted on th alxth
count, which set forth a separate and
distinct ofTenaa, end the failure to ac
quit him was a distinct Invasion of his
rights. Had he been acquitted on thl
count tie could not be-tried again for
the offense which - It charged, while
now. on a retrial, he might be forced
to meet again the eharge contained in
that count. Senator Thurston ala
